Nutrition tip: Remember that snacking is good. Eating little and often keeps our blood sugar levels stable meaning we are less likely to feel stressed, gain weight or experiences energy slumps. But remember that it must be the right foods as junk food will have the opposite effect. Try a few unsalted nuts, seeds, fresh fruit, vegetable sticks, oatcakes with houmous, rice cakes with a little fish, natural yogurt or for an essential protein boost try slices of lean meat such as cooked chicken or turkey.

Wellbeing tip: If you find you suffer from low energy at any time in the day, try the yoga technique, the 'Ha' breath. Go somewhere quiet and take a deep breath in through your nose, raising your arms above your head. Then take deep breath out through your mouth, making a 'Ha' sound and bend forward as you do this. Repeat 5 times. You will be amazed how you feel detoxified, revitalized and ready to face the day again.

Final Thought I hope you have enjoyed the tips and the information in the newsletter. Here's a final wellbeing tip for you:

Take your fave holiday photo and set it as your screen saver, homepage or desktop. That way, every time you put on your computer your mind can be instantly transferred back to how you felt when you were there. In the neuro linguistic programming (NLP) field this technique is called 'anchoring' and it is simply about linking your thoughts to an image to bring about certain positive feelings.
